I think it was much more than grocery and housing prices that caused the Blue Wave on Tuesday.
It was the Epstein files, masked ICE agents, the teardown of the East Wing, cost of medical care, arrogance of Pam Bondi, idiocy of RJK Jr., refusal to fund medical research, the Great Gadsby party...

Someone snapped this picture of Rory Bourke and Anne Murray at the after-party, held at the Grand Ole Opry House this past Monday. She saw him in the crowd, came up to him and said "You got the next single!" The song is "Rest Easy in My Love," written by Rory Bourke, Charlie Black, and Bucky Jones.

The Orange Felon once called the White House a "real dump." I wonder, is it next to fall to the wrecking ball? Or will he be content to shred the constitution and destroy democracy?

Three hundred million dollars (projected cost of the DJT ballroom) divided by ninety thousand square feet means the new bldg will cost three thousand three hundred and thirty-three dollars per square foot. Is that possible?

Is my math off?

Or is someone getting a giant kickback?

This is the new $300,000,000 Jeffrey Epstein Ballroom that will soon dwarf the White House. The East Wing is history, as is the Jacqueline Kennedy Rose Garden.
Yes, that's three hundred million dollars. And counting.

That the very disturbed man living in the White House would post a video of himself wearing a crown and piloting a helicopter, dropping piles of feces on peaceful protestors is a measure of how low we have sunk.
Omg, how disgusting. How gross. How infantile. How sick.

To see thousands of protestors streaming down the hill from the TN State Capital brought tears to my eyes.This is our Boston Tea Party; this is when we say NO to kings, racists, Nazis, homophobes, misogynists, liars, & criminals.

Let's all get a costume, like those fun-loving Portlanders, and march on No Kings Day. Let them call us far-left radicals; they're hoping repetition of their lies will make us care less that we are losing our democracy to a tyrant. We can answer with brays, moos, quacks, neighs, meows, & woofs.

Judging from the sign and the flag on the back of this pickup, I'd say the driver is an Evangelical Christian who supports the Felon in the White house.
Guns don't kill people ... Really?
There's a wall in Heaven to keep Immigrants out. Really?

You don't have to read very far into Julie Brown's book before you hit Trump's name. It's on Page 32.
One of the tools Miami police used when they began to investigate Epstein was to comb through his garbage. They found names of clients and victims. And something else: letters from Trump.

According to the Washington Post, since Columbine, we're had 434 school shootings. In 2025 alone, there have been 44. We still have 4 months to go. How many more kids will be traumatized, and how many will die?
The Orange Felon might want to concentrate on that, rather than crime in blue cities.

If TACO wants CDC Director Susan Monarez out of her job, he has to do the firing himself, according to her lawyers. Because she was confirmed by the Senate, he can't just order one of his flunkies to do the job for him. TACO will have to put on his big boy pants and do it himself.

"Rest Easy (In My Love) is Anne Murray's new single.

Written by Rory Bourke, Charlie Black, and Bucky Jones, the song is one of "eleven, newly found, unreleased songs" on Anne's new album.

How thrilling, to have this song find its way out of some dark canister into the light.

I wore my "Free Palestine" pin to Cool Springs Toyota dealership earlier today. I got three compliments.

Yesterday it was the "Stop Genocide" pin. "I like you pin" said the guy checking out customers at Trader Joes.

@bsky.app Socialism, as it exists in most European countries and a ton of other enlightened places, includes universal healthcare, free higher education, strong labor protections, and generous welfare. It is NOT a slow slide toward Communism. Get a grip, Republicans.

@bsky.app Mitch McConnell's response when reminded that millions will lose healthcare if the Big Ugly Bill is passed: "They'll get over it."
Kinda like Marie Antoinette during the French Revolution: "Let them eat cake."

@bsky.app Initial assessments from the Pentagon say the "obliteration" of Iran's nuclear program was less "a complete obliteration" than our Dear Leader claimed.
More like a bee sting.
The hunt is on for the "leaker" or "leakers" of this info. Dare to contradict the Dear Leader, and ...

@bsky.app Now that DJT is an adjudicated rapist, we might look at his trip down the golden escalator a bit differently. We know he habitually accuses others of what he is guilty of. So when he says Tim Walz is grossly incompetent, a clown and stupid, here's at you, Mr. Incompetent Stupid Clown.

In baseball, three strikes and you're out. Can we pass a law where the Orange Felon only gets three shots per year at the S. C.? If they rule against him three times, he's done. The Court of Appeals verdict stands.

I'm tired of his constant appeals. Ad nauseum tired.

"Skyline Drive" will take you back to the days of the Great Depression, Bonnie & Clyde, and Jimmy Rodgers singing "Waitin' for a Train."
It's published in the literary journal, Sundial Magazine.
Google Sundial Magazine, Skyline Drive.

During Custer's campaign against the Cheyenne in 1867, he galloped off after a herd of bison, aimed his revolver, and shot his horse through the head.
The Orange Felon's tarriffs might be analogous to Custer, aiming for a buffalo, killing the horse he was riding on.

This poor bird has been sitting on four eggs since April 14th. How much longer till they begin to hatch?
